Have to change thread name but how about this: __(name)__was traveling to __(place)__, wearing a _(color)_ ___(item of clothing)__, wanting to buy __(adjective)__ (something buy-able)___.
Like this: Anita/Austria/aqua/apron/antique/armchair.
How say you?

Bob was travelling to Bologna, wearing a blue* baseball cap and wanting to buy* a blue bed.
*I suggest another adjective instead of just colour here and a choice of any verb.
e.g.
Quentin was travelling to Quebec, wearing quick-wash quilting and wanting to quit querulous quipping. [ 25. August 2016, 15:34: Message edited by: jacobsen ]
